Just for the record, I've been following San Diego State basketball closely for quite some time now.

I just never thought to post anything on the BTPCH forum. In fact, I distinctly remember telling my wife back in November or so that they would have a good chance of winning their first 18 or 20 games, and could have the longest active winning streak in Div I around mid-season. If you don't believe me, go ahead and ask her.

Really, pretty amazing how it's working out like that. That Stu Fischer is an awesome coach. Where did they ever find him?

I just hope he's not thinking about taking the Michigan job...

I watched the game against UNLV the other night. SD ST is for real. Of course, they don't play in a "BCS" league, so they'll go 30-1 and get a #7 seed.

Teams can get away with that if they beat anyone of note out of conference. They're best OOC wins are at Gonzaga and at home against Wichita State. Those wins won't move the needle. They've got the biggie coming up a week from Wednesday in Provo against Jimmer and Co. They definitely shoot well from the floor...6th in the country. That game on the 26th will be one to check out.

Great team you got there Mikey810.

Sagarin says their schedule is 19th toughest in the nation? WTF.

You sure that's the 1/17/11 Sagarin?

I clear my cache regularly.

This is a typical Steve Fisher led team. Very athletic and talented but undisciplined and lacking in hoops IQ. As soon as they meet a team that has one or both of the following in the tourney they are cooked: equal athleticism, high hoops IQ.
